Produktbeschreibung

An anthology of eleven original Sherlock Homes tales set during the missing years between his apparent death and later return-includingtheEdgar Award finalist "The Adventure of the Missing Detective" byGary Lovisi.

"Kurland . . . scores again in this lively all-original anthology. . . . Stories by Baker Street veterans Gary Lovisi, Carolyn Wheat and Richard Lupoff, plus others newer to the world of Holmes pastiche, round out this enjoyable volume." - Publishers Weekly

In 1891, Sherlock Holmes in a struggle with his archenemy, Professor James Moriarty, disappeared over Reichenbach Falls and was presumed deceased. Until, that is, he reappeared in London in 1894, revealing himself to his friend Dr. John Watson, and resumed his activities as a consulting detective. Holmes remained very quiet and mysterious on those missing three years, never really revealing precisely where he'd been and what he'd done in the "hidden years."

Now, in this anthology of original stories the truth about those thirty-five months is unveiled and Holmes's adventures described. While some stories place Holmes in such familiar locations as New York and San Francisco, others find him high in the Himalayas or above the Arctic Circle. With stories from such writers as Rhys Bowen, Peter Beagle, Carolyn Wheat, Michael Collins and many others, Sherlock Holmes: The Hidden Years is a must-have book for every fan who has ever wondered about the untold adventures of Sherlock Holmes.

"Brings a new sensibility and a new dimension to the Holmes legend . . . a delightful addition to the ever-growing mythology of this immortal fiction hero." - Booklist
